All Activity

I'm about 2.5 miles south of the border. It was a tough storm to measure for sure but I did my best. According to the map from JD, Suffield reported 8.8, BDL reported 11.8, which was surprising, and Somers reported 11.8, which also suprised me, although Somers has some pretty high elevations on the eastern side. Either way, it was a run of the mill event here besides the wind. It was frustrating for sure sucking exhaust for most of the daylight hours.

so I went into the office today, across the street from BDL, and on the way in you could see where that secondary band kinda cut off in western Granby, going up the hill in barkhamsted it was looking like here, also had to go to Waterbury today and just south of about harwinton it seemed a bit less, but Waterbury looks like maybe 12/13" fell, I assume from the initial push, that fizzled out overnight, then the banding took over around predawn time

This was the beginning of the adventure from Pembroke to Scituate total whiteout

That's threat #3

Que crazy social media accumulation maps and general public dismay,

very active period.

GFS has like 4 different shots honestly thursday: see separate thread sunday: light t-1" nonsense monday/tuesday: FRZA for MD and interior NE/Boston MECS before it sinks down and gives everyone some frza LATER tuesday: 1-4" of snow

I will ALWAYS be a more snow is better person, but.....ever since my civil engineering husband took the plunge and had solar panels applied to our house we have a nightly/weekly discussion on how many, what we call "Jabloops" have been credited to our PP&L account. My husband, a civil engineer waited until the solar engineer in his company pulled the plug and purchased solar himself. I say PURCHASED because there is NO way that we would do that other way that let the solar company get the tax credits. "I" am the weather scientist (USCGA Class of 1987, Applied Science). Being an engineer, he required them to "over design" our panels to 130% of our needs. I checked it with him over the weekend and as I expected the north facing panels provided very little since the last storm. Fortunately the majority of our panels are on the south side. I just wanted to see how long it took for all of the panels to be snow free.

And yet you held your composure posting here like most of us that got less than expected. Then there's "that guy".

Dear Randy, Do not fear. The first event doesn't work out, But the second one is here!

Thanks, you have the link?

Timing not resolved at this range.. need that HP to be robust to have a shot at frozen.

Still feasible at this range to get into the yellow 24"+.

Nice

I'm already getting texts like this from my friends. So I know that something has been made about it on social media. You have to excuse the first two texts there.Everyone likes breaking my balls.

Snow does funny things getting blown around by 60 mph winds like sticking to the siding on houses and getting into every nook and cranny.

So true, I watched his videos and it was so bad that he was pissed at purple for calling him out as if they were wrong and he was the poor, little victim. He was so bad!

That’s a huge swath of snow on that depiction.

Ok fine one more snowstorm, then we can warm up lol

I was worried about dry air lurking to the north most of the week as the confluence from that s/w backing in from ME was slow to lift out. Sunday morning I just knew it was going to be a problem when I saw how much the dry air was putting up a fight with the cloud cover.

If that timing is Monday I might have to think about it sooner lol

January 2026 regional war/obs/disco thread Ginx snewx replied to Baroclinic Zone's topic in New England 56 more inches by 3/31 epic end of January February like 2014

Nightime freezing rain with a shit antecedent airmass in early march. Hell yeah! Thanks 1038 High that moves in late, for nothing.
